Unauthenticated payment bypass via trusted client status
Published Feb 18, 2026 · Updated Feb 18, 2026
Payment verification bypass in RegistrationMagic 6.0.6.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to activate paid registrations without paying. The process_paypal_sdk_payment handler trusts a client-reported payment status and activates the pending WordPress account without confirming the transaction with PayPal. An unauthenticated request can therefore complete a payment-gated registration, but no broader account privilege or payment-system access is reported.
